With more than 50 hours worth of gameplay, more than 245 different monster types, and over 10,000 different combinations, Gaming Evolution is sure there is something to justify playing VK2 more than once. As you progress through the game, new job classes (Enchanter, Guard, and Monk) and races (Akatoki, Canine) are available to utilize, which helps to keep battles interesting and your character a force to be reckoned with. By also being able to add an additional 2 job classes to your character (total of 3), more flexibility is given to the gamer on how they want their character fight.
Not stopping there, there is always tons of loot to be picked up along the way, which can fetch a pretty penny when you sell it, while at the same time you run the risk of finding some equipment that would boost stats greatly.
This series is destined to be quickly forgotten in the west (it actually has a strong niche in Japan), which is a pity, because there’s a lot to like about these games. They're not for everyone, but JRPG fans looking for something a little different would do well to try these out.
Original-Gamer writes: "With Final Fantasy XIII just under a month away, I decided to keep my time occupied with another RPG to take up that time until then. The game is Valhalla Knights 2 by XSEED Games. Now I've played a couple of games from the PS2 era that XSEED has developed, some good some not that great. But with nothing really hot out for the PSP at the moment, I decided to give it a try."
Marvelous Entertainment published some new screenshots and artwork from Valhalla Knights 2.
